Hey guys I need help on my project.
I need a counter that counts with a push of a button and displays it in a 7 segment display.It must count by 5 up to 32 like this:0, 5,10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 3, 8, 13, 18, 23 28 01, ... I created a simulation works just fine. However, I was not able to build a physical circuit. Can anyone draw a blueprint for me , so i can build a physical circuit. Here is my logisim simulation:http://www.mediafire.com/download/hxbb554l9aa7y58/BLG231E-Project.circ

 

A Johnson counter does this with a shift register and a whole bunch of gates. For 32 states you need a 16-bit shifter.
Why is zero in the first sequence but not in any of the rollovers?
Are there 32 or 33 total states?

There is just one sequence. It is counting by five modulo 32. 30 + 5 ≡ 35 ≡ 3 (mod 32). Similarly, 28 + 5 ≡ 33 ≡ 1 (mod 32).

The sequence consists of 32 values given by

5·n mod 32 where n = {0, 1, 2, ..., 29, 30, 31}

When n = 31, 5·31 ≡ 155 ≡ 27 (mod 32). Upon adding five more you are at 32 ≡ 0 (mod 32) and the sequence repeats.

 

One approach would be a binary counter as one input to a binary adder, with a constant 5 as the other input.

Please post a screen shot of your Logisim schematic here. Don't force people to go out to some third party site and download and open what may or may not be a safe file. Also keep in mind that only a fraction of members will even have Logisim, so a screen shot of the schematic is far more useful to many more people.

If your simulation works but your physical build doesn't, then generally either the physical build isn't faithful to the schematic or the schematic is sloppy and leaves out important details (details that the simulator isn't sensitive to or doesn't rigorously enforce). It's hard to tell which is more likely until we see the schematic.

That's probably the most obvious and quickest approach and a very good starting point. Since the second input IS constant, significant circuit simplifications can be made if device count minimization is important.

I am sorry you are very right. How inconsiderate of me. Here is schematic :
and but it is not applicable since there are splitters. What I want from you is a design works as simulation but pretty much like this :


I mean with microchips.

 

First off, you are NOT going to get us to do YOUR homework for you. If that is what you are looking for then you are wasting everyone's time.

We will look at YOUR attempts and point things out for YOU to consider and then revise YOUR work accordingly.

One of the first things you need to take into account is that simulators often allow you to leave unused inputs floating. They shouldn't, but they often do. The real world isn't nearly as forgiving. You NEVER leave CMOS inputs floating. This can not only result in errant behavior, but can physically destroy the chips. You MUST tie ALL unused outputs to an appropriate logic level, either HI or LO, depending on the function of that input. You SHOULD leave unused outputs disconnected (they will be driven to a defined state by the internal circuitry of the chip and if you tie it hard to the wrong level it will contend with that level, again possibly leading to errant behavior and or physical damage, though most modern chips will limit the current to avoid damage).

Please forgive WBahn. You misunderstood me and its my fault, because i believe I have not told my problem clearly.
You have to understand me I am new to these topics. Yes it is my course's ending project but I am not trying to you to do MY homework.
Let me rephrase my problem. I designed a circuit in Logisim that fits my requirements but since I am not familiar with microchips i was not able to create the circuit physically. In fact the second picture that i used in my previous comment was my attempt to it. The problem of my design is not resseting after 31 . In simulation it was pretty easy to solve since I set adder to five bits. I am asking help to fix this design to reset after 31:

 

What do you mean by "resetting after 31"?

If it is a mod-32 counter that is counting by five then the state following 31 is 4.

 

By resetting he means roll over.

If that circuit is your attempt thus far, how are you expecting it to count by five? It looks like it is configured as just a normal BCD counter (aside from all of the floating inputs, which may prevent it from counting at all).

What is your plan to count by five? You said that you have it working in the simulator, so that must be with some other circuit than the one you are posting here.

 

No both of them works just fine by counting five. I just want to physical one to have mod 32.

Please explain how that circuit counts by five. What would you do differently to make it count by one?
